Is there any API for iterating GHashTable?
I only see the the g_hash_table_foreach() here. But sometimes people may like to iterate through a hash table and stop the iteration when certain conditions are met.
Currently, there is g_hash_table_size(), we could easily add iteration by providing the following two new APIs,
gconstpointer g_hash_table_get_key(GHashTable *hash_table, int pos); gconspointer g_hash_table_get_value(GHashTable *hash_table, int pos);
The two APIs allows one to iterate the hash table, for example,
for (i = 0; i < g_hash_table_size(hash_table); i++) { gconstpointer value = g_hash_table_get_value(hash_table, i);
/* Do some processing here */ if (is_match(value)) return TRUE; }
Should we add the APIs?
